. >> can president bukele weigh in, do you been to return him. >> by the state -- >> only cnn. >> howto the united states? i am not doing that. like, question how can i smuggle a terrorist to the united states. larry: pretty preposterous, we will talk with jason chaffetz former utah congressman fox news contributor, co-hosting "the bottom line" with dagen mcdowell this evening. 6 p.m. eastern on fabulous fox business. he is smarter than a lot of people. >> live that president in el salvador, homeland security is in, of deporting people not importing people, the guy is an ms-13 gang member according to steve miller, he is from el salvador, he is not a maryland man this senator thinks he will bring him home, democrats keep trying to take this side of the thugs. of the criminal element. instead of taking side of the americans, that is just a losing message. larry: and we have seen this movie. another obama appointed federal judge, i believe obama said, trump's executive order to deport can't be done because joe biden 85-- thousand people got asylum. >> you create it by an executive order

. >> salvadoran president nayib bukele. that happened yesterday. but the federal judge said, well, that's not enough. what she wants. >> to. >> see is the documents submitted to the court, the record to be shown. she said, quote, i don't consider what happened yesterday as really evidence before this court yet. and she also ordered an intense. >> discovery. >> meaning she wants to see this over the course of the next two weeks. now, the trump administration is arguing here that in addition to that emphasis on deference of foreign affairs, that they also have to remove domestic barriers. well, the federal judge not. >> buying that, saying that this. >> is not so cut and dry and saying. >> that. >> she may order or expand. >> her. >> definition of the word facilitate. >> jake and priscilla, president trump is not backing down on this idea of deporting american criminals to el salvador. is that even legal? >> well, let's be clear here. you can't deport u.s. citizens. but what he has been entertaining is finding some way to send. >> american criminals.

president bukele does not want to give him back to the united states, nor do we want him back. >> so that's it. >> now, in fairness to the attorney general, she is lawyering. she's the top lawyer in the justice department, right? she's taking that word that we've now heard so much about since this story broke. facilitate and giving it her reading, which is the minimum, least possible. right. that's their position. and so while it might be a stretch, i showed you the evidence that some people allege there's been bad faith that itself is under investigation. we are now at the point where this is up to the supreme court. if facilitate means, do it or try to do it, or at least go on record requesting it. well, these are all lawyers. i know some lawyers. i'm a lawyer. you can just deal with that and say if there were any doubt on the next appeal, because his lawyers can say they have not facilitated it, and that can become another issue on appeal. if he's stuck in the prison, you say facilitate meant try and at least show on record that you requested and you did not. you are now in breach

as we heard yesterday el salvador would have to release him and bukele said he is not likely to do it that he was a mistake they could have brought him back and had hearing and deported him. you wouldn't have this story going on and on and on. chris van hollen wants to go down there. i'm not sure it's a great p.r. for him it. goes on in the gonzalez. a big political issue gets fought over when there is so much going on. >> bret: it is interesting, if president trump asks the president of el salvador to get this guy back. one would think that they would do it but maybe they don't? >> good to be with you. thanks for having me. you would think. so at a time in which president trump is trying hardest to negotiate trade deals with countries all around the world including canada and mexico and china and at a time in which he is negotiating with putin ending the war in ukraine. one would think he would have the ability to negotiate with the president of el salvador to send someone back. not only discontinue the story but equally important just follow the law. i think it sends the wrong messa

president bukele is lying when he says he can't get him back.know he can return people because he returned people from the original shipments. there were women that were sent there and he said you shouldn't be here. there were some venezuelans he didn't want he said okay you shouldn't be here and he shipped them back up your killed they think it's funny. getting that hot mike moment where donald trump and the el salvador he and president were talking in front of the oval office and they are talking about wouldn't it be grt if you could take our home-grown ones -- you cannot legally sent americans to a cell for dorian prison no matter what they had done. senator kennedy was on our air earlier and said as much. one more thing to say multiple more things to say, but what is most important is under the alien enemies act you deserve due process. that's what the supreme court ruled. if you go back to world war ii when we were invoking this same act that people who were here undocumented from japan, from germany, from italy were allowed to go into a co

oval office meeting yesterday between president trump and salvadoran president nayib bukele. >> where >> heard there that the el salvadoran president is not going to bring him back or return him to the united states. well, that was cited in filings by the justice department. it's also been cited in the course of this back and forth. >> and she. >> was quite stern on this matter. the federal judge, that is, she says, quote, i don't. consider what happened yesterday as really evidence before this court yet. >> so what is. >> all leading to is essentially she needs it in writing. >> she needs. >> it as a record. >> to the court. >> what happened in the public forum is not what happened. >> in the court. and she wants. >> more answers from the justice department. and casey, i have been attending some of these hearings, and this has been a through line over the. course of this case where the federal judge has been asking for more information from the justice department as to how they will facilitate the return. and she has and she has been stonewalled by the justice department over the cou

pues luego de las declaraciones fulminantes ayer del presidente bukele en la oficina oval. hoy continua la batalla legal de kilmar abrego garcia, el salvadoreno deportado por error, quien permanece en la mega carcel. cecot. recordemos que el presidente bukele dijo ayer que no tiene el poder de regresarlo a estados unidos e incluso fue mas alla diciendo que no esta dispuesto a li liberarlo siquiera dentro de el salvador. esto a pregunta e expresa de noticias telemundo. el gobierno aprovecho estas declaraciones a su favor y por la tarde, en una respuesta formal a la jueza que lleva el caso, argumento que los dichos del presidente salvadoreno dejan claro que washington no tiene el poder para garantizar su re regreso. la jueza haedido, luego de que la corte suprema tambien se puso del lado del inmigrante, que la administracion trump informe diariamente los pasos que toma para facilitar su retorno. kilmar abrego garcia hay que subrayarlo una y otra vez sigue siendo senalado sin evidencias ni pruebas. fue detenido sin causa probable ni una orden y fue deportado al unico pais al q

el presidente de el salvador, nayib bukele, aseguró que no devolverá a abrego garcía a los estados unidosrifa de un poco más del 20% entra. en efecto, esto a mediados del mes de julio. méxico representa más del 90% de las importaciones de tomate de estados unidos y a menudo los vende a un precio por debajo del valor del mercado. y es que méxico subsidia a sus productores de tomate, lo que les permite a ellos vender a precios más bajos que los del mercado. en los estados unidos. en fresno aumenta el número de incendios en viviendas desocupadas y las autoridades ahí dicen que personas sin hogar pudieran estar involucradas en estos incidentes. pasamos con el informe de peter ruiz, quien tiene más detalles. el sonido de las sirenas rompe la calma en fresno ha incrementado la cantidad de incendios en estos. estos tipos de estructuras casas, hogares que están vacíos. estos siniestros no son aislados. descubrimos que había personas que no tienen donde vivir. buscan un lugar vacío, una casa, por decirlo así, y entran para cubrirse o dormir o incluso cocinar dentro de ese hogar. ya sean accidental

he talked about this yesterday with his meeting with president nayib bukele in the oval office and hehe americans the most violent grade just repeat offenders of crime and nobody in this room wants a living in their communities. >> reporter: and then cha an end president biden let 530,000 people from cuba, nicaragua, venezuela with this chn b program and he did it with the e of a pen and now a judge will not let president trump undo it with a stroke of a pan. so are you guys going to give all 530,000 plus people, individual deportation hearings or are you just going to try to deport them? >> secretary leavitt: i spoke to white house counsel's office this morning because obviously another rogue district court judge trying to block deportation efforts with latest injunction. we will fight this in the court of law and ensure every individual who was or illegally enter the country and was really taken advantage of by the previous administration because they abused the parole system in this country to fast-track legal status as they said for illegal immigrants. and they completely abused o

between president trump and bukele. let me play that. >> criminals. >> yeah. >> i said, hold xanax.egrown. you got about five more places. yeah. that's better. all right. >> president trump has suggested that there could be people in this country who, for various crimes, should be sent there. he wants him to. expand the number of cells available. he said maybe do. five of them is sending an american born citizen overseas legal? >> no it's not. i mean, what differentiates us as citizens from immigrants is that we have the right not to be expatriated, except in the circumstance where you commit a crime in another country and the us has an extradition treaty with that country. for example, if i commit a crime in mexico, then the us might have a treaty with mexico that demands that i be sent to mexico to face accountability for my crimes. but absent that, absent a conviction in that other country, a us citizen cannot sent to another country simply for crimes committed here. and by the way, chris, we don't even know if donald trump is talking about people who who have been convicted when

so, that now that this man is back in el salvador, it's really up to el salvadoran president nayib bukele to make that decision. but then we also heard kelly say that he doesn't believe he has the power to return him to the u.s. as well. all of that, despite us knowing, of course, that this is really kind of in their hands. so today is going to be a very key part of these big questions now of where does this case go from here and whether or not the courts feel like the administration is defying, openly defying their orders. >> right. and the president was also asked about the notion of deporting u.s. citizens. and he said his administration is looking into deporting, quote, homegrown criminals as well, something he says they're looking at the laws for. but legal experts, many of them called that flatly unconstitutional. is that proposal being seriously considered? >> you know, it's something that i know that the president admitted yesterday was something they would have to look into the legal justifications for. but then he said that he was directing his attorney general, pam bondi, to do

to be clear, there was no request that was made of president bukele, who is sitting two feet away from the president of the united states. yet at the same time, this comes after the supreme court ordered the administration to help, quote, facilitate the removal of abrego garcia from el salvador back to the united states, where he had lived on the streets of maryland for the last six years. i want to let you listen to. attorney general pam bondi outlined the argument that they are making. >> that's up to. >> el salvador. if they want to return him, that's not up to us. the supreme court ruled president, that if, as el salvador wants to return him, this this is. international matters, foreign affairs. if they wanted to return him, we would facilitate it. meaning provide. >> a plane. >> arguing that they are to facilitate his return. that is, if el salvador were to direct and order his removal back to the united states, which clearly president bukele rejected the notion that he would be a part of that. but again, there was no direct request publicly made of him inside of the oval office d

it is not the prerogative of the united states to determine what a sovereign country and president bukele do with individuals that are now detained inside of his country. take a listen. >> it's very. >> arrogant, even for american media to suggest that we would even tell el salvador how to handle their own citizens as a starting point, as two immigration courts found that he was a member of ms. 13. >> two courts, an immigration court and an appellate immigration court ruled that he was a member of ms. >> 13 and he was illegally. in our country. >> that's up. >> to el salvador. >> if they want to. >> return him. >> that's not. >> up to us. >> the posture of this administration is that abrego garcia was an undocumented individual. despite having the legal status in 2019 from an immigration judge. the administration arguing that they are not in the position to dictate whether el salvador returns of rigo garcia or not. >> gary, do you think that. >> miller and attorney general. >> bondi's. >> comments could. >> come up in court today? >> i'm sure. >> it will, jose, because. >> we're seeing th

and you did not see president bukele react negatively to this at all.t's important to remember that president bukele will be making lots of money for his country. if trump continues to support this idea and to support and fund his prisons in el salvador. >> as the u.s. pays for housing in el salvador. william lopez, professor of public health at the university of michigan, thank you so much for joining us today. >> happy to be here. >> outside our doors. an abrupt change in the weather. we've got cloudy skies. we've got breezy conditions, the slight possibility of a few sprinkles and drizzle over the next couple of days, and temperatures this morning in the 50s. we've got 50 degrees in santa rosa, low 50s livermore, upper 50s over palo alto. storm tracker two here, a lot of that cloud cover. and where is it responsible for the responsible party from off the coastline here. this low is going to take a couple of days to pass over california. and by friday, it is to the east of us. we begin to see another change in the weather pattern in time for the weeke

bukele taking el salvador to the safest country in the western hemisphere. president bukele said everyone is talking about my prisons, they don't talk enough about the millions i've liberated, which is true in el salvador. it is like night and day. and president trump did not just like bukele made his country safe again, it takes imprisoning violent criminals to liberate the rest of the appearsful population. i could tell donald trump liked that. >> ainsley: i loved your question on tariffs, we will play it now. even donald trump said no one has ever asked me that question. watch this. >> you are the only one that has asked me that. i deal with big financial geniuses, nobody asked. there is chance money from tariffs could be so great it would replace, in old days about 1870 to 1913, tariffs were only form of money. >> correct. >> president trump: that is when our nation was relatively the richest. >> ainsley: you also taught him to say let's make america great again in spanish. watch this, everyone. >> president trump: the theme of this was make america grea

maria: nayib bukele responded yesterday with president trump. >> can by the bukele weigh in. >> a to simultaneously a terrorist into the united states -- can i smuggle how can i rush him to the united states? i smuggle him into the united states? i am not going to do it-like, this is the question is preposterous how can i smuggle a terrorist into the united states i don't have power to return him to the united states. >> president trump entered entertained idea sending criminal americans to el salvador's prison watch this. >> if criminals if they hit people with base ball bats overhead happened to be 90-year old if they a relationship 87-year-old woim in coney island brooklyn that includes them why do you think they are a special category of person? they are as bad as anybody that comes in we have bad i am all for it, because we can do things, with the president, for less money and have great security. than we have a huge prison population we have others negotiating with, too but if it is, if it is a -- a homegrown criminal, i have no problem. now, we are studying laws right now, and

miller, the deputy chief deputy chief of staff for policy, but also from el salvador's president bukele, that they have no intention of returning abrego garcia to the united states again. despite that supreme court ruling nine zero that the united states and the trump administration should facilitate his return. but one thing, john, in all of this that i think is very striking, that i don't think can be lost is what else the president said yesterday. essentially, he said that he plans to ramp up the deportations, the number of deportations to el salvador, but not just for undocumented immigrants, people who are in this country illegally and those who have committed alleged violent crimes, but also united states citizens. and the president referred to them as homegrown criminals. listen. >> we always have to obey the laws, but we also have homegrown criminals that push people into subways. that hit elderly ladies on the back of the head with a baseball bat when they're not looking, that are absolute monsters. i'd like to include them in the group of people to get them out of the country.

. >> the president of el salvador nayib bukele responded during the oval office meeting with the president>> can president nayib bukele weigh-in, do you plan to return them. >> i'm suggesting that the terrorist of the united states into the united states. how can i return him to the united states. can i smuggle him into the united states. of course i'm not going to do it. the question is preposterous, how can i smuggle a terrorist into the united states i don't have the power to return them to the united states. maria: president trump entertaining the idea of sending criminal americans to el salvador's prison, watch this. >> if the criminals and hit people with baseball bats over the head that happened to be 90 years old. if they rape 87-year-old women in coney island in brooklyn, yeah that includes them. you think there is a special category of a person through there as bad as anybody that comes in. we have bad ones to. i'm all for it. we can do things with the president for less money and have great security. we have a huge prison population. we have others were negotiating with two. if

the president was talking about this explicitly in the oval office with president bukele.this was not something that they were hiding the ball on. it is very clear that this is something that they're talking about, how they do it. the timeline for what that would be, and also the process that they would actually pursue. nobody really knows right now. but the only thing that i think everybody needs to keep in mind, and we've talked about this before, failure of imagination is not something that people, i think should be able to claim at this point in time. and it is clear when you watch in the oval office that this is something that kind of animates them, that they think is a plausible idea. and based on everything we've seen over the last three months, why wouldn't they? >> yeah. all right. stay with us. we've got a lot more to discuss here because as we close out tax season today, i want to talk about the trump administration's department of government efficiency, or doge, and its reported plans for the irs. joining me now to discuss her latest reporting on this senior po

so looking forward, i think this is just the beginning of this relationship between trump and bukele and the beginning of how much we're going to see. they wouldn't even put a limit on how many people. >> they're going to be. holding in those facilities. >> and julia, to. >> your first. >> point, president trump is again floating the idea. >> of deporting. >> u.s. citizens. >> to el salvador. >> as trump and el salvador's president. walked into the oval office yesterday. >> a live. >> stream of the event caught the duo discussing the idea. >> as the. >> meeting began, trump confirmed his administration is looking into it. >> i want to know, do you? >> hold criminals? >> yeah. >> i said. homegrown is the next the homegrown. you got about five more places. yeah. all right. you always have to obey the laws. but we also have homegrown criminals that push people into subways that hit elderly ladies on the back of the head with a baseball bat when they're not looking that are absolute monsters. i'd like to include them in the group of people to get them out of the country, but you'll have

maryland father and husband was never charged or convicted of a crime, salvadoran president nayib bukele says he has no intention of sending abrego garcia back to the u.s. >> how can i smuggle a terrorist to the united states? >> during monday's meeting, president trump also said he'll explore legal avenues to potentially deport u.s. citizens to el salvador if they commit crimes. >> if we can do that, that's good. and i'm talking about violent people. i'm talking about really bad people. >> as the administration's immigration crackdown faces more legal challenges, a federal judge in vermont monday considered whether to release a tufts university student detained by ice and accused of engaging in activities supporting hamas. lawyers with the aclu called the arrest of rÜmeysa ÖztÜrk unconstitutional. erika brown, cbs news, washington. >> treasury secretary scott bessent says the u.s. will hold trade talks next week with south korea, a major exporter of cars. as for china, bessent is still hoping to strike a deal on tariffs. a new cbs news poll finds 58% of americans oppose the president's

. >> we have millions of people that should not be in this country. >> reporter: president bukele has taken in alleged gang members deported from the u.s. and posted videos of their arrivals at a notorious prison. among them, kilmar abrego garcia, a father of three with a work permit in maryland. a justice department prosecutor had said he was deported due to an administrative error. bukele now says he won't send him back. >> i don't have the power to return him to the united states. >> reporter: the white house now argues he was not mistakenly deported. >> he's an illegal alien from el salvador. where was he sent? to el salvador. >> reporter: the trump administration says abrego garcia is a member of ms-13, the violent gang the white house has designated as a foreign terrorist organization. his family denies it and he's never been charged criminally in the u.s. or el salvador. >> president trump, bring kilmar home now. >> reporter: late last week, the supreme court ordered the trump administration to facilitate his return to the u.s. >> that's the order. the order is bring him back.

. >> yesterday hearing directly from bukele was significant because so far, trump administration officials have been saying that this isn't up to us. this is ultimately up to el. salvador to send him back. so having basically say what he did yesterday essentially gave trump the cover. >> to maintain. >> this idea that he cannot send him, send him back. and i think it was significant the way we saw trump handle the questioning yesterday. you know, it's rare you see trump not want to answer these questions and defer to his administration officials. but that's exactly what he did. and it had this it. >> felt coordinated. >> in a sense. and that was, you know, of course, because of the legal issues here. i mean, we saw him toss to pam bondi, you know, they're talking about this idea that they they only have to facilitate his return. that word is very important because they're suggesting el salvador has to send him. but we can provide a plane. he tossed a stephen miller, and then we saw rubio jump in as well. and that was not that was not by accident. >> yeah. certainly not. so you're seeing a

president trump and salvadoran president nayib bukele are making it clear that the maryland man who was wrongly deported to el salvador's mega prison, will not be returned to the u.s. michaela met trump at the white house on monday, where he said that it would be preposterous, to, quote, smuggle a terrorist into the u.s. kilmar abrego garcia enter the u.s. illegally 14 years ago, but was granted protected status in 2019, which prohibited his deportation to el salvador. the trump administration admits that it had mistakenly deported abrego garcia and the supreme court endorsed a federal judge's directive to, quote, facilitate his return. but attorney general pam bondi says that her interpretation of the ruling is that the u.s. has, to, quote, provide a plane and ultimately it's, quote, up to el salvador if they want to return him. now, trump says that he is open to also deporting u.s. citizens who are considered violent criminals to el salvador. take a listen. >> michael lasalle. we always have to obey the laws, but we also have homegrown criminals that push people into subways that hit

. >> do you plan to ask president bukele to return the man mistakenly deported?they ask with a slants because they don't know what is upon haing. >> todd: joe, your thoughts? >> joe: you see this over and over again on cnn and other networks. he's just a maryland father coaching his kid's little league team and ice swept in and sent him to el salvador. no, he entered illegally, an illegal or somebody who entered the country illegally temperature is always a man, a maryland man like a naturalized citizen. co co colins is always making herself the str. we saw members of the administration from marco rubio to others in that room like steven miller answering the right way while mocking the question. el salvador president said we will not return this person. it is something we seem to talk about how katelyn collins asks a question and get shut down. she can't even attract 500,000 people to watch her show. cnn is watched by less people than discovery channel, hallmark, mistily, tlc, history channel, food network. they are hopelessly biassed and not the network i grew u

that's how el salvador's president, nayib bukele, characterized a question from a reporter in the ovalday who asked him whether he'd return. kilmar abrego garcia, a father of three with a work permit in maryland. how can i smuggle a terrorist to the united states? i don't have the power to return him to the united states. abrego garcia has never been charged criminally in the u.s. or el salvador. the justice department has said he shouldn't have been sent there, and the supreme court called his removal illegal. last week, directing the administration, to, quote, facilitate his return. but the administration is interpreting that by saying it doesn't need to initiate a garcia's return only help. this is international matters. foreign affairs. if they wanted to return him, we would facilitate it. meaning provide a plane and a declaration filed today by the acting general counsel at the department of homeland security underscored el salvador's president's comments. this is being looked at as an important test case for the exercise of how far executive power really goes in this country, mr.

and so when i asked president bukele to weigh in on this, given they kept repeatedly pointing back and saying that they could not force el salvador to do anything, even though they are paying el salvador a lot of money right now to take in the other venezuelans and other nationals that they are sending to el salvador. he weighed in and essentially argued it would be preposterous. he compared it to smuggling this person into the united states, though, of course, he could willingly return him if if he and president trump both were seeking that. but the clearest takeaway as we left the oval office today was that they do not have any intention of returning this man to the united states. and so that does raise a lot of questions about what is going to happen in court next, because at one point, the president seemed to get annoyed with the repeated questions about this very matter. but this is a huge fight that is playing out in the courts right now. and the justice department is actually under a ruling as of this moment, john, where every day they have to report by 5 p.m. what they have don

. >> wha t you ask president nayib bukele to reture the man who was mistakingly deported to el salvador>> let me ask pam if she would answer the question.r >> sure, mr. president. first and foremost, he was illegal in our country and i had been illegal in our country.that in 2019, two immigration courts and appellate court ruled he was a member of ms-13. that is up t ho el salvador if>w they want to return him. that is not up to us. >> would you answer that question also? >> gladly, it is a work camp for american media to suggest we would tell el salvador how to handle his own people. >> mark could j.d. have say?hing to >> i don't understand what the confusion is. this member is a member of el salvador. he was illegal in united states> and that is where you reportde them back to their country of origin. >> laura: this wasri a round robin in the oval office. joining me now ari fleischer coachella fox news contributor. i've never seen anything likea n this how trump handles the media in a situation like this. ari what is difficult about the presses position here this individual determined

you can call it a thank you visit for nayib bukele, who has accepted these deportees from the united states. now, bukele's political rise is built on brutality, a three year long crackdown in his home country. he's even given himself a nickname. the world's coolest dictator. and then there is trump doing vladimir putin's pr today in the oval office. the american president put putin pretty low on the list of humans to blame for the war in ukraine. >> the mistake was letting the war happen. that war should have never been allowed to happen. that war, i went four years in. putin wouldn't even bring it up. when you start a war, you got to know that you can win the war, right? you don't start a war against somebody that's 20 times your size, and then hope that people give you some missiles. >> why do we need to keep reminding the president that ukraine did not start this war? i mean, that is just a basic fact that underpins that statement. i don't understand why he's stuck on this and insisted on giving vladimir putin a pass. >> well, he's in the middle of negotiating, hopefully what will

the only ones in the running where bukele and generalissimo cheetah of cheetonia.thing that trump really admires: a huge prison complex that experts have described as hell on earth. i'd say that's underselling it. at least in hell, you never get a visit from kristi noem. one of the inmates currently in that prison is a maryland man legally working here, married to an american citizen, with american children, his name is kilmar abrego garcia, and he was kidnapped by i.c.e. and rendered to the torture prison because of what trump's own lawyers have admitted was an administrative error." trump's folks are trying to "whoops-a-daisy" a human rights violation. it's like when hitler came out with "mein bad!" now, both a federal district court and the united states supreme court have told trump to bring abrego garcia back. but so far, the administration has refused to obey the court order. today, in the oval office, he was asked about it. >> do you plan to ask president bukele to help return the man who your administration says was mistakenly deported? >> which one is it?

a pocket full of excuses. >> can president bukele weigh in on this? to return him? >> how can i smuggle a terrorist into the united states? i don't have the power to return him to the united states. [boos] >> jon: can i honestly tell you, the thing that is -- like, they're [bleep] enjoying this. the two of them. our president, their president: "i can't do it, i can't do it, i guess we'll have to just let him rot in the [bleep] prison i know you guys don't care about ." him, but somebody else cares about this person. and you just randomly, with no evidence you'll show anybody, called him a terrorist! and one of the weirder parts about it is, the only thing that seems to upset trump the most about the entire situation is having to answer a perfectly reasonable question from kaitlan collins about it. >> you said if the supreme court said someone needed to be returned, you would abide by that. you said that on air force one just a few days ago, and they said it must be facilitated, that -- >> why don't you just say, isn't it wonderful that we're keeping c

. >> can president bukele weigh in on this? do you plan to return him? >> well, i'm not suggesting that i smuggle a terrorist into the united states, right? i mean, how can i smuggle? how can i return him to the united states? like i smuggle him into the united states? or what do i do? of course i'm not going to do it. it's like. i mean, the question is preposterous. >> law and order, safety, security. respect our laws. border sovereignty. come in, but come in legally. now, tonight, we can report that 11 more violent illegal immigrants, including seven trend de aragua gang members, were deported to el salvador and their notorious prison system over the weekend. president trump has a duty to protect all of you and our way of life. what happened under biden at the border is unforgivable. we will pay the price for his open border policies for decades likely to come. and by the way, today, the illegal immigrant who killed a maryland mother of five. we've spoken of her often. rachel moran, thankfully convicted of murder. but we should never forget the pain, t

i asked president bukele directly to weigh in. and president bukele weigh in on this. do you plan to return him? >> well, i'm not suggesting that i smuggle a terrorist into the united states. right. how can i return him to the united states? like i smuggle him into the united states? or what do i do? of course i'm not going to do it. it's like. i mean, the question is preposterous. how can i smuggle a terrorist into the united states? i don't have the power to return him to the united states. >> so bukele says that he does not have the power. after you also heard the attorney general say that it was up to him whether or not el salvador would ultimately return abrego garcia to the united states. and i should note tonight, we're hearing from government attorneys who are back in court responding to a federal judge has given them a daily deadline to essentially check in with what steps they are taking to facilitate his return. and they have said that the u.s. government, quote, does not have the authority to forcibly extract him from el salvador. i have a team of legal min

>> can president bukele weigh in on this? do you plan to return him? >> well, i. >> suppose we're not suggesting that i smuggle the terrorists into the united states, right? how can i smuggle? how can i return him to the united states like i smuggle him into the united states? or what do i do? of course i'm not going to do it. it's like. i mean, the question is preposterous. how can i smuggle a terrorist to the united states? i don't have the power to return him to the united states. >> cnn just asked the president of el salvador if he was going to smuggle a terrorist into the united states. the president of el salvador thinks we're crazy democrats. senator from maryland, chris van hollen is demanding to meet with el salvador's president. and if he doesn't get a meeting with the president, he says he's going to fly to el salvador himself. rachel moran was a maryland mom. she was raped and murdered by an ms. 13 member from el salvador. and van hollen never flew to el salvador to confront anyone. van hollen is trying to get a guy out of prison whose gang

i mean, this is this is how someone like nayib bukele operates. he is in his element here, meeting with the president. he wants to be front and center. he wants to be seen as being aligned with donald trump. he wants to do whatever it is that trump asks. this was true of his first of trump's first term. you know, trump makes this very easy for foreign leaders and particularly for leaders in the region, because trump has such obvious kind of unwavering obsessions, the immigration obsession, the kind of demonizing of immigrants by by suggesting that all of them are somehow criminal elements. it makes it very easy for someone like a strongman himself just to take his cues from the president and to really bask in the glow of this kind of special relationship with the u.s. president. >> david, are you able, of course, to to gain access to cecot? trump posted video today, which seems to show just quite aggressive, demeaning treatment of those there. so far, more than 200 venezuelans deported there from the u.s. and now you have this idea of deporting am

i saw the comments of president bukele, and i look forward to looking -- to meeting with him. i have asked to meet with him and if we can't meet here, i intend to go to el salvador to discuss the release of this individual who is illegally detained in el salvador. i believe the president of el salvador will recognize why it is important to allow him to return to the united states of america. the united states and el salvador have had a strong relationship over many years. the u.s. provides lots of support to el salvador. that support is not merely an issue for the executive branch. all of us as members of the appropriations committee, also support whatever foreign assistance budget goes forward so i believe the president of el salvador will reconsider. when he understands the full story of this illegal detention. i don't think he wants to essentially be the president who kidnapped a u.s. citizen and it was the fault of the trump administration for sending him there illegally, but he shouldn't spend extra -- one extra day in a notorious prison in el salvador when the president

but if you think of president bukele is the one who holds the ultimate power in el salvador. that's true. then the person who holds the keys to unlock cecot would be villatoro. and the reason i point him out is because i spoke with him late last week, and he wouldn't speak specifically about abrego garcia case, but what he relayed to me was fascinating, essentially showing just how intentional and deliberate the coordination is between el salvador and the u.s. when it comes to the deportees. john, he said that they are actively sending criminal records and all sorts of data to u.s. law enforcement, and that these deportees that arrive in el salvador, particularly those who have a history in el salvador, are not random, he said. we know exactly who is coming into our country. and in fact, in many cases, we have sent the criminal records and said, this is who we want. send them over. >> john. mm. very interesting. a coordinated effort. it really does seem, based on your reporting, david. jeffrey, we did hear the president on that hot mic saying that he wants to send u.s. citize
